The skill steps did not explain what to do when Copilot Space failed to create the requested issue or pull request. This updates the learner-facing step content to add a left-aligned retry note and references the provided retry-button screenshot from the local .github/images directory.

  • Step content

    • Adds a retry note to the issue-creation step in .github/steps/1-step.md
    • Adds the same guidance to the pull-request creation steps in .github/steps/2-step.md and .github/steps/3-step.md
    • Keeps the note flush to the left margin so it renders consistently with the surrounding instructions
  • Image asset

    • Adds /.github/images/retry-copilot-space.png
    • References the image using the existing relative image pattern already used by other step documents
  • Content polish

    • Uses step-appropriate wording (issue in step 1, issue or pull request in later steps)
    • Improves image alt text for accessibility
> [!NOTE]
> If an issue or pull request is not created, click the **Retry** button shown below

Pull request overview

This PR improves the learner-facing GitHub Skills step instructions by adding explicit guidance for what to do when Copilot Spaces fails to create the requested issue or pull request, including a referenced screenshot of the Retry button.

Changes:

  • Adds a left-aligned [!NOTE] callout instructing learners to use Retry if creation fails (issue in Step 1; issue/PR in Steps 2–3).
  • References ../images/retry-copilot-space.png with improved alt text to support accessibility.
  • Applies the same retry guidance consistently across Steps 1–3.
